Four Athens residents find accounts looted

Four Athens residents reported that that funds were stolen from their checking and savings accounts between Oct. 9 and Thursday, Athens-Clarke police said.

Police did not know if the incidents were related.

A woman said two fraudulent ATM withdrawals totaling more than $1,600 were made Thursday from her checking account in Biloxi, Miss., police said, two days after someone used another woman's debit card account to make a $400 withdrawal, also in Biloxi.

A different woman said her check card number was used five times in Atlanta, between Oct. 9 and Monday, to make purchases totaling $237, and a man said his debit card account number was used to make three fraudulent charges totaling nearly $700 in Douglasville, police said.
